Search Page Layout

[scorpion53061]

Is it possible to configure the search page layout? (the search page
template form provided).

Not other than applying a theme or style sheet to the page

What I am basically want to do is stick a <br> tag between each result.

Do you know how I could do that?

 

[Stefan B Rusynko]

FP search generates the results in a non-editable table in the format of:

<TABLE border=1>
<CAPTION><B>Search Results</B></CAPTION>
<TBODY>
<TR>
<TD><B>Document Title</B></TD>
<TD align=right><B>Score</B></TD></TR>
<TR>
<TD><A href="yourpages.htm">Your page title</A></TD>
<TD align=right>XXX</TD>
</TR></TBODY></TABLE>

What you would need to do is add a CSS style to the page for the tags Caption and TD
- or to TBODY TD if you don't use it on your pages
- that style will affect all tables in the page unless you apply a different style class to all other tables

Add the following style to your head section (will add a 25 px bottom margin to all TD cells in TBODY tag

<style type="text/css"><!--
tbody td { margin-bottom: 25px; }
--></style>

If you do use those elements on your page you can wrap the search results in
a div and use a contextual selector.

#searchresults table {margin-bottom: 1em;}

<div id="searchresults">
Stefan's provided search results code
1em space
next search results code
1em space
</div>

This was great. Thank you both for helping me get started on this.

in a div and use a contextual selector.

#searchresults table {margin-bottom: 1em;}

<div id="searchresults">
Stefan's provided search results code
1em space
next search results code
1em space
</div>
